Equation: $2x+4=0$

Subtract 4 from both sides:

$2x+4-4=0-4\\2x=-4$

Divide both sides by 2:

$\frac{2x}{2}=\frac{-4}{2}$

Simplify:

$\frac{-4}{2}=-2\\x=-2$

Therefore, your answer would be x = -2.

The area of a rectangle is 6x^2-9x-15. And the length is (2x-5). Which expression best represents the rectangle’s width?

tester [92]

<h2><u>AnswEr :</u> </h2>

The area of the rectangle is of the form 6x² - 9x - 15

Factoring the given expression,

$\sf \: {6x}^{2} - 9x - 15 \\ \\ \leadsto \: \sf \: 3\bigg( {2x}^{2} - 3x - 5 \bigg) \\ \\ \leadsto \: \sf \: 3 \bigg( {2x}^{2} - 5x + 2x - 5 \bigg) \\ \\ \leadsto \: \sf \: 3 \bigg((2x - 5)(x + 1) \bigg)$

Length of the rectangle is 2x - 5

Thus,

$\leadsto \: \sf \: (2x - 5)(3x + 3)$

<h3>The breadth of the rectangle is 3x + 3 </h3>

to arrive at 2000 liters of 60% saline solution the attendant has to mix a 90% and a 40% saline solution. How many liters of eac

CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

<u>800 liters</u> of 90% saline solution and <u>1200 liters</u> of 40% saline solution should be used.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

At 2000 liters of 60% saline solution the attendant has to mix a 90% and a 40% saline solution.

Now, to find the number of liters of saline solution each should be used.

<u><em>Let the liters of 90% saline solution mix be </em></u> $x.$ <u><em /></u>

<u><em>And let the liters of 40% saline solution mix be</em></u> $y.$

So, the total number of liters:

$x+y=2000.$

$y=2000-x\ \ \ ....(1)$

Now, the total percentage of saline solution:

$90\%\ of\ x+40\%\ of\ y=60\%\ of\ 2000$

$\frac{90}{100}\times x+\frac{40}{100}\times y=\frac{60}{100}\times 2000$

$0.9x+0.4y=1200$

Substituting the value of $y$ from equation (1) we get:

$0.9x+0.4(2000-x)=1200$

$0.9x+800-0.4x=1200$

$0.5x+800=1200$

Subtracting both sides by 800 we get:

$0.5x=400$

Dividing both sides by 0.5 we get:

$x=800.$

<u>The liters of 90% saline solution mix = 800.</u>

Now, substituting the value of $x$ in equation (1) to get the liters of 40% saline solution:

$y=2000-x$

$y=2000-800$

$y=1200.$

<u>Thus, the liters of 40% saline solution = 1200.</u>

Therefore, 800 liters of 90% saline solution and 1200 liters of 40% saline solution should be used.
